The present invention provides a method and composition regeneration of an aminal that has previously been reacted with a sulfide selected from hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans. The method includes contacting a scavenging mixture which includes an aminal, and an oxidation catalyst with a gas such as air, oxygen enriched air, oxygen, ozone enriched air and ozone. The composition includes an aminal, and an oxidation catalyst. The method and composition are useful for the regeneration of an aminal base sulfur scavenging compound.

streams. The method includes contacting the sulfide-containing gas stream with an aqueous scavenging mixture which includes a scavenging compound, that is a product of reaction between an aldehyde and a nitrogen compound, an inorganic ion and an oxidation catalyst: regenerating at least a portion of the scavenging compound with an oxygen-containing gas and returning at least a portion of the aqueous scavenging mixture to the contacting zone.
